The deal between Volkswagen Group and TomTom will see the company bring its traffic service to the Group’s cars across Europe, beginning with Audi and Volkswagen.

 

It means Audi and Volkswagen drivers will benefit from the accurate TomTom service, with millions of miles of roads covered. Navigation systems can propose reliable alternative routes, saving drivers hours of travel time annually, while actively reducing fuel consumption.

 

Harold Goddijn, CEO of TomTom, said: “We’re delighted to announce this important partnership with Volkswagen Group, one of the world’s premier car manufacturers, strengthening our global market leadership as the trusted provider of navigation technology.
